This research is intended to suggest some reference materials for the future planning of floating hotel, by reviewing the concept of floating hotel and analyzing the realized and planned ones through the search of related documents and homepages. Floating hotel can be defined as a building for living/recreation/work/entertainment with floating system on water, but without navigation tool. In terms of sequence, the River Kawi Jungle Rafts Resort was built in 1976, Four Seasons Hotel in 1988, and Salt & Sill in 2008. Floating hotels are various in scale(height) and size(room numbers), and have basic, cultural, health & marina facilities. Architectural characteristics of sample facilities can be summarized as self-supporting of the facilities, environmentally friendly architectural planning, utilization of renewable energy, introduction of new plastic composite material, and provision of same view from all bedrooms by rotating the building.

The physicochemical properties of dongchimi, a Korean fermented Chinese radish, were investigated for their changes during fermentation in 7% NaCl brining solution at $4{\sim}35^{\circ}C$, The results showed that the relative viscosity of brining solution were initially decreased before steady increase there after. The Hunter L value increased and a value decreased and the turbidity also showed a similar increase as L value as affected more significantly by high fermentation temperature. The hardness of Chinese radish decreased initially followed by a little increase and then slowly decreased at later stage of fermentation. A linear relationship was found with decrease in salt concentration in brining solution and logarithmic value of brining time and activation energy was calculated for temperature range of $4{\sim}35^{\circ}C$ from the relationship.

In this study, a novel material polyketone (PK) was chosen and PK micro/nano fiber membranes were fabricated via electrospinning method under various conditions. After that, the potential application in oil-water separation was thoroughly investigated. The surface of microfiber membrane formed under high humidity especially became much rougher than that formed under low humidity. When salt was added to the spinning solution, the diameter of fibers was reduced up to 90% and the nanofiber membranes could be formed. The oil/water emulsions were prepared and separated under gravity condition using the manufactured rPK-LNC and PK-H membranes. The separation characteristics was evaluated by measuring total organic carbon (TOC) and turbidity. Meanwhile, the changes in the physical properties of fiber membranes under various conditions and with or without salt, as well as the changes in oil water separation characteristics were also studied.

In this study, the corrosion resistance by salt spray was evaluated using A6061-T6 for an electric vehicle battery pack case coated with an organic/inorganic hybrid solution. The lowest curing temperature of 190 ℃ resulted in significant corrosion and pitting. Meanwhile, no corrosion was observed in the coated specimens at 210 ℃ and 230 ℃ except at 210 ℃ - 6 min and 8 min. The surface of the as-received coating specimen observed by FE-SEM exhibited streaks and dents in the rolling direction, but the coating surface was clean. On the 190 ℃ - 6 min coating specimen, which had a lot of corrosion, rolling streaks spread, and dents were caused by corrosion. The 200 ℃ - 12 min coating specimen did not show corrosion, but it showed an etched surface. In the line profile, Si, the main component of the coating solution, was detected the most, and Ti was also detected. In the coating specimens with salt spray, O increased and Si decreased, regardless of corrosion. The peeling rate by adhesion evaluation was 26 - 87% for the 190 ℃ coating specimen, 4 - 83% for the 210 ℃ coating specimen, and 94 - 100% for the 230 ℃ coating specimen. The optimal curing conditions for the coating solution used in this study were 210 ℃ for 10 min.

Magnesium secondary batteries are attracting much attention due to their potential to replace conventionally used lithium ion batteries. Magnesium secondary battery cathode material Mo₆S₈ were synthesized by molten salt synthesis method and PVC as a carbon materials were added to improve electrochemical properties. Crystal structure, size and surface of the synthesized anode materials were measured through XRD and SEM. Charge-discharge profiles and rate capabilities were measured by battery test system. 2.81 wt% PVC coated sample showed the best rate capabilities of 85.8 mAh/g at 0.125 C-rate, 69.2 mAh/g at 0.5 C-rate, and 60.5 mAh/g at 1 C-rate.

Electro-chemo-mechanical devices or artificial muscles based on conducting polymers (CP) are presented as bilayers, CP/adhesive polymer, or as triple layers, CP/adhesive polymer/CP. Those soft and wet materials, working in aqueous solutions of a salt, mimic the composition of most organs from animals. Under electrochemical control, so working as new electrical machines, they produce continuous, reverse and elegant bending movements, mimicking those produce by animal muscles. By means of the current a perfect controls of the movement rate is attained giving soft and continuous movements. Muscles able to sense the chemical and mechanical conditions of work or muscle having tactile sense, as will be presented here, are being developed. All of them are founded on the non-stoichiometric nature of the soft and wet materials.

Silicone rubber have presently been using in large number for a variety of outdoor HV applications. Silicone rubber have the properties of low surface energy and are able to retain its hydrophobicity or water repellency, thereby suppress the leakage current in the present of moisture and contamination. In this paper, we investigated the recovery characteristics of silicone rubber by measuring the leakage current under salt-fog.

A new ionic liquid, 1-vinyl-3-heptylimidazolium iodide (VHpII), was synthesized and applied as a redox electrolyte for dye-sensitized solar cells. The chemical structure of the synthesized VHpII was confirmed using $^1H$ NMR. Thermogravimetric analysis showed that the VHpII was stable for thermal stress of up to $250^{\circ}C$. The energy conversion efficiencies of the VHpII-based dye-sensitized solar cells were investigated in terms of the effect of a lithium iodide addition. A solar cell containing the redox couple of VHpII and iodine showed a conversion efficiency of 2.63% under 1 sun light intensity at AM 1.5. Adding 0.4 M LiI results in a conversion efficiency of 3.63%, which was an improvement of about 40%. The increased conversion efficiency was ascribed to an increase in external quantum efficiency.

We report a quantum chemical study of an extremely efficient nucleophilic aromatic fluorination in molten salts. We describe that the mechanism involves solvent anion interacting with the ion pair nucleophile $M^+F^-$(M = Na, K, Rb, Cs) to accelerate the reaction. We show that our proposed mechanism may well explain the excellent efficiency of molten salts for SNAr reactions, the relative efficacy of the metal cations, and also the observed large difference in rate constants in two molten salts $(n-C_4H_9)_4N^+\;CX_3SO_3^-$, (X=H, F) with slightly different sidechain ($-CH_3$ vs. $-CF_3$).

Sintering kinetics of ball-milled $MoSi_2$ was studied with the addition of Ni. $MoSi_2$ powder with the average particle size of 1 $\mu\textrm{m}$ was obtained from ball-milling of 10 $\mu\textrm{m}$ powder. Small amount of Ni was added to the ball-milled $MoSi_2$ powder by salt solution and reduction method. The powder was compacted into cylindrical shape at 200 MPa and isothermally sintered in a $H_2$ atmosphere at the temperature range of 1100~$1400^{\circ}C$ for 3~600 minutes. The changes of linear shrinkage and sintered density were monitored as a function of sintering time. The microstructure was observed by using optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. Phases were identified by X-ray diffratometer and electro-probe micro analysis. Sintering kinetics of Ni-added powder was compared to as-milled powder and the apparent activation energy was calculated from Arrhenius plot.
